Check the engine oil level using the dipstick located on the right side of the engine. This should be done after the engine has been turned off and oil in the lubrication system has had time to drain back into the oil pan.

Unscrew the dipstick handle, 1, and pull the dipstick from the tube. The dipstick is marked to show the minimum (L) and maximum (H) oil level for the engine. If additional oil is needed in the engine, unscrew the filler cap handle, 2, and add oil as necessary. (N14 Engine Shown in Illustration)

NOTE: The vehicle must be level when checking the oil level.

IMPORTANT: Never operate the engine with the oil level below the L (Low) mark or above the H (High) mark. Wait at least five minutes after shutting off the engine to check the oil. This allows time for the oil to drain to the oil pan.

NOTE: The engine is filled with 10W-30 oil at the factory. This weight oil aids in cold- weather starting at the manufacturing facility. SAE 15W-40 oil as listed is the preferred viscosity oil for normal operation.

Buhler Versatile and Cummins Engine Co. recommend the use of a high quality SAE 15W-40 heavy-duty engine oil with an API classification of CE or CF-4 for most applications. Contact your Buhler Versatile dealer to obtain engine oil.

Additional information on engine oil use under extreme conditions (hot or cold weather) can be found in the Cummins Engine Manual provided with the tractor.
